Abstract

A non-corrosive detergent cleaning composition adapted primarily for cleaning dishes and textiles formulated to contain a mixture of detergent agents, oxidizing or disinfecting agents, non-ionic or a mixture of non-ionic and anionic agents, and which may include filling agents, the improvement wherein the composition is formulated to contain a sodium silico-aluminate which inhibits coloring, corrosion and degradation of chlorine derivatives, with or without a silico-aluminate to inhibit tarnishing of aluminum.

Description

The invention relates to new solid, non-corrosive detergent compositions in powder form, for cleaning materials such as glass, china, earthenware, ceramics, etc.
Applicant's French Pat. No. 2,105,475 claims new detergent compositions comprising a mixture of detergent agents, oxidizing or disinfecting agents, non-ionic agents or a mixture of non-ionic and anionic agents and possibly filling agents; the compositions are characterized in that they also contain a corrosion-inhibiting and color-inhibiting additive belonging to the group of sodium silico-aluminates of the general formula x Na2 O, y Al2 O3, z SiO2, w H2 O wherein, if y equals 1, x is advantageously from 0 to 2, z from 4 to 16 and w from 0.3 to 4.
In this formula, the letter w expresses the OH radicals bonded to the silica and alumina in the form of water. This water is measured by the difference between the product's loss of weight on ignition (parte au feu) at 900° C and its moisture content, determined by drying at 140° C. A silico-aluminous additive of this type further contains a certain amount of absorbed water, which may vary from 1.5 to 50% by weight of the final product used (50% of water and 50% of dry product being the upper limit).
An additive of this type has given excellent results as a corrosion and color inhibitor.
However, it is known that chlorine derivatives are now being used increasingly in detergent compositions, since they have the dual advantage of having a certain bactericidal power and of acting as deodorizing agents.
Unfortunately the chlorine derivatives used are unstable in storage.
Various solutions to this problem have been proposed. Thus U.S. Pat. No. 3,166,513 states that the rate of chlorine loss is substantially reduced when the active chlorine derivative is sodium dichloro-isocyanurate.
It has also been proposed to include chemical stabilizers (U.S. Pat. No. 3,352,785) or a white paraffin oil (U.S. Pat. No. 3,350,092).
When all these solutions proved inadequate, dihydrated alkaline sodium dichloro-isocyanurate was proposed in French Pat. No 2,207,982 as a source of active chlorine in dishwashing compositions.
Although such a product proved to be more stable than the others hitherto used, a loss of chlorine is still observed when detergent compositions are stored for a long time.
It has also been observed that, although the sodium silico-aluminates claimed give excellent results in most cases and particularly as far as glass and decorative finishes (decors) are concerned, they still leave two problems to be dealt with, viz, degradation and blackening of utensils made of aluminum and/or aluminum alloys.
It has already been proposed to use sodium silicates to inhibit corrosion in light alloys.
If they are to produce satisfactory results, however, the silicates must be used in relatively strong doses, and the more alkaline the medium to inhibit is, the stronger the doses have to be.
This is the case with mechanical dish-washing, where alkaline pH levels are absolutely essential if a satisfactory cleaning action is to be obtained.
When it is in the liquid state, however, the addition of such doses of silicate poses problems due to the appearance of a caking effect, which results from the vitreous character of the silicate and the degradation of the chlorine salt.
One would have thought that a simple solution would have been to use powdered silicates.
Unfortunately such silicates dissolve slowly, which means that they are not effectively present during a good part of the wash and consequently that they cannot act as corrosion inhibitors.
It has now been found that these drawbacks can be avoided by using a sodium silico-aluminate.
In particular it has been found, unexpectedly, that the stability of chlorine derivatives in a detergent composition can be increased considerably, and that this stability can be maintained in the presence of perfumes, which generally make chlorine products still more unstable.
The chlorine derivatives, according to the invention, comprise any products which are generally commercially available, such as sodium isocyanurates; more particularly, they comprise sodium dichloro-isocyanurate and preferably dihydrated sodium dichloro-isocyanurate.
Finally, the perfume comprises synthetic organic products or natural extracts (alcohols, esters, ketones, aldehydes, ether-oxides, terpenes, etc.) recalling the odor of lemon, orange or mint.
During the preparation of a detergent composition according to the invention, it has further been found advantageous to add the chlorine compound after the inclusion of the sodium silico-aluminate and after the addition of any perfume which the detergent composition may contain.
It has also been found that a sodium silicate can be introduced in liquid and thus soluble form, so as to avoid the above-mentioned drawbacks with regard to the appearance of the detergent and its stability.
In accordance with the invention, a premix of a sodium silicate, initially in liquid form, which is absorbed by a sodium silico-aluminate of the formula x Na2 O, y Al2 O3, z SiO3, w H2 O is included in the detergent; the sodium silicate has a molar ratio SiO2 /Na2 O of from 2.5 to 4/1 and advantageously forms 1 to 5% of the weight of the detergent composition.
The sodium silico-aluminates according to the invention are of the above general formula x Na2 O, y Al2 O3, z SiO2, w H2 O wherein, if y equals 1, x is advantageously from 0 to 2, z from 4 to 16 and preferably from 6 to 15 and w from 0.3 to 4 and more particularly from 0.5 to 2.5.
Generally speaking such silico-aluminates are in the form of a non-abrasive, white powder which is very fine and dusty, however much water is absorbed. The agglomerates forming it have an average dimension of from 2 to 10 microns, while the very fine ultimate particles have dimension ranging from 50 to 900 Angstroms, measured by conventional methods with an electron microscope.
The silico-aluminates have a BET (BRUNAUER, EMMET and TELLER) specific surface area, measured by adsorption of nitrogen, of from 50 to 600 m2 /gram and advantageously from 70 to 250 m.sup. 2 /gram.
The sodium silico-aluminate, according to the invention, preferably comprises an amorphous synthetic silico-aluminate and has a porosity of from 50 to 200 cm3 /100 grams, measured on a mercury porosimeter for cavities in the range from 400 A to 2.5 μ.
In practice the proportions of each of the constituents of a detergent composition according to the invention advantageously fall within the following limits (per 100 parts by weight of total composition):

__________________________________________________________________________
In the above comparative table the proportions of the various constituents are given in parts by weight relative to the total composition.
The surfactant used is an ethoxylated linear alcohol marketed under the name of PLURAFAC RA 43.
The sodium silico-aluminate is a synthetic, amorphous silico-aluminate of the formula 2 Na2 O 6.5 SiO2 Al2 O3 2 H2 O with a BET surface area of 100 m2 /gram. The dimension of the primary aggregates is 1000 A, the size of the ultimate particles 200 A and the porosity, measured on a mercury porosimeter, 100 cm3 per 100 grams.
The perfume is a synthetic aldehyde perfume similar to lemon.
Chlorine derivative 1 is a sodium dichloro-isocyanurate marketed under the name of CDB 63.
Chlorine derivative 2 is a hydrated sodium dichloro-isocyanurate with two molecules of water, marketed under the name of CDB "Clearon."
As will be seen from the summarizing table (see tests 1, 2 and 3), in the absence of a sodium silico-aluminate, a large amount of chlorine is lost and the presence of a perfume (test 3) leads to an additional, fairly substantial loss of chlorine.
The presence of silico-aluminate, according to the invention, (tests 4 and 5) brings a remarkable increase in the stability of the chlorine compound, and this stability is largely maintaned despite the presence of a perfume (tests 6, 7, 8, 9).
The above tests show clearly that the presence of a sodium silico-aluminate, according to the invention, brings an unexpected and very genuine increase in the stability of chlorine compounds in a detergent composition.

______________________________________
The behavior of these compositions is observed with regard to the following:
their appearance and reaction to storage
the stability of the chlorine salt in time
their action on aluminum utensils.
Appearance and reaction to storage are tested as follows:
assessment of caking (prise en masse).
The product to be tested is placed in a cylinder. This is associated with a piston adapted to exert a given known pressure, set to a value of 0.8 kg/cm2.
The whole arrangement is then left for 7 days in an enclosure which is kept at a relative humidity of 90%, then for 1 day in a stove with a constant temperature set to 40° C.
The sample is then placed in an apparatus for measuring the pressure required to break it up.
assessment of flow properties.
50 grams of the product to be tested is placed in a funnel sealed at the base. The bottom of the funnel is 180 mm away from a receiving level. The product is left in the funnel for 1 minute, then freed. It flows out, forming a conical pile. The diameter d at the base of the cone and the height h of the cone are measured.
The angle a is then determined, defined by the equation tg a = 2h/d. The smaller the angle a, the more free-flowing the product is.
assessment of flow from a silo.
This comprises measuring the speed at which the product passes through a silo with a calibrated orifice which undergoes slight vibrations. For this purpose x grams of product is placed in the silo and flow from it is obstructed. At a given moment, the opening in the silo is freed and the vibrator started. The time T for the product to pass through is then noted (expressed in seconds).
These tests are carried out on compositions 2 and 5. The results obtained are summarized in the table below.

It should be noted that formulae 4, 5, 6 and 7 maintain their chlorine content very well.
Finally, the action on aluminum utensils is studied by washing two new aluminum saucepans with each of the detergents.
Washing is repeated until a distinct blackening effect is recorded relative to a new, reference saucepan.
The table which follows sets out the results of these tests.

______________________________________
It will be seen that blackening takes place immediately in the absence of an inhibitor (test 1),
that the silico-aluminate alone has a slight tarnishing-inhibiting effect,
that powdered sodium silicate gives results far inferior to those obtained with a silicate of the same molar ratio in liquid form,
and above all that the composition containing both a silico-aluminate and a sodium silicate gives a novel, unexpected anti-tarnishing action.
